Standing by my Colors, Serving
Faithtullv."

Heretofore we epreferred looking
after the interests of the Temperance
column" under the mon de plume" of
"White Ribbon" perfectly willing that
it any credit was due, that any member
OF the comradeship, or the whole COM
bined, receive the honors. But now
that censure and m1sconstruction fails
heavily, l feel it my duty to show my
colors, and shoulder the responsibility,
IS much as J. shrink from the publicity
attendant therein. The proprietors of
the Herald have neither of them been
aware of what the Column" would
bring forth each week, until they shared
it with the other readers OF the paper;
consequently any censure, merited or
otherwise, justly belongs to me. l feel
assrredthat all who are seeking the
protection and purity of our homes will
second me in my efforts and for those
with whom | differ, the worst | wish
them is, that they will not long hence
bravely battle for God and home, and
humanity, as they now defend what
they claim is right. "With malice TO-
ward none and charity for ALL

The question this fall is not between
prohibition and the present license, but
between prohibition and high license.
High license prevents the commission
ers Fl n protecting our villages, while
local option grants no special favors to
incorporated towns and cities. Each
county is left to decide its own future
and the responsibility rests with her
citizens. No, recall that, not with
her citizens, for if it did there would be
no doubt about the result. The better,
sober half of her citizens, the women
of Dakota, are not allowed to SO much
as breathe upon this law which is
freighted with the veal or woe of their
families. High license is not even g
compromise, but an ignoble surrender
of A merican mankind for a few dollars.
High license is only SO much moral
chloroforrl to keep the temperance
people asleep while the rum.sellers
scramble for the spoils. If a free I'M
licensed saloon is an .uamitigated null
sance the payment Of $500, or $1,000
cannot transform it into a public ben
eft. Their is not particle more drunk
in a glass of free unlicensed whiskey
than glass bought at a saloon paying
the highest license. The disgrace, mis-
cry and heart-ache is none the less be-
cause your. son got drunk on high-li-
cense 'whiskey. The advocates of high
license. ask that for a money considera-
ton runs batteries shall be sanctioned
by law on pretext and pretense that
thew shall be limited in number, and be
so adorned and decorated as to not be
offensive to the eye, ana they also IN
clude an objection not to fire their
guns into our children. A Georgia pa
per says suppose al the liqnor in t.rn
was in one large cask, what difference
would it make whether that cask was
tapped in one, two or ten places, Sc the
LIQUOR was all drawn out and drank !!
High license proposes to draw all the
liquor the people will buy, but it Fro
poses to have a few taps less-that's
ALL" The proverbial half-loaf which
has fallen to the share OF the temper
ance people for their wicked wavering
in behalf of high license when they
could get no better liquor laws has
proven half-loaf Of tears and ashes.
Bitter tears over the loved and lost,
and the ashes Of the countless dead
who have fallen victims to the curse
Of strong drink. Theliquor dealers half
loaf is represented by constantly IN
creasing profits. WE want no such d.
vision OF spoils in .Tecauld county N
| fact we wsnt no division at all but we
do desire the legal life OF the liquor
traffic.

This, his land to free and save
From dread slavery's cruel chain.
And from all that leaves Il stain.
Our soldier S gone! Our soldiers S gone!
With the sun our Joys have set,
But bright stars are shining yet;
They will tell of brave deeds DONE
They will speak Of battles won,
Where mid blood the brave BOYS fall,
Who quickly followed freedoms call.
Our braves are gone! Our braves are gone

Our dispatches of yesterday indicate that the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road is making preparations to run through trains from San Diego to Chicago by next June. These trains will pass over the Santa Fe and Gullup short cut, not yet completed, and the dispatch indicates over other more direct lines than the route now taken. There is not a great deal of doubt that the propose line from San Diego to Yuma on the Mexican side of the line and road from Yuma through this valley on the north side of the river uniting with the Mineral Belt road will ultimately form part of this new overland route.-Herald.

General Sparks may not he aware 2f the fact, that in his efforts to defeat the interests of the desert land, laws, le is working in the interest of large ,attle corporations, who who are using hese lands for grazing, and are oppos- d to their reclamation for agricultural purposes. If Mir. Sparks idea of the Iesert land law is enforced, it will be imply impossible to reclaim any of the lesert lands in Arizona. It might be we'll for the president to have the commissioner Of the general land office -isit Arizona and New Mexico and see or himself what the real conditions re. He would learn many interes ting acts from observation that would sur rise him. Mir. Sparks evidently don't now that his rulings and instructions ,n the desert land business is defeating le very result he is striving for, but
 ich is the fact.-Star.

Engineer Treadwell of the Southern Pacific has been in San Diego several days figuring on ingress for that road A prominent contractor was telegraph ed to there yesterday in reference to bidding on the granting of a line from Pomona to Elsinore. It may be predicted, with a certainty of fulfilment, that the Southern Paci- 6c will soon begin to built from Pomo- na to Elsinore, thence to Warmers 'anch, on the edge of the desert, thence through Carissa canyon to a iuction with the main line to Yuma. From Warmers ranch, which the Southern Pacific has bought, it will built to San Diego, via Santa Maria valley, thence via either Fl Cajon or Poway and Mission valleys.
